1. Oil filler plug

3. Upper level (maximum)
4. Lower level (minimum)
To inspect the engine oil level:
• Start the engine and run at idle for
approximately five minutes.
• Stop the engine, then wait for at
least five minutes to allow the oil to
settle.
• Note the oil level visible in the sight
glass.
• When correct, oil should be visible at
a point between the upper level and
the lower level on the sight glass.
• If it is necessary to top up the
oil level, remove the oil filler plug
and using a suitable funnel, add
oil, a little at a time, until the level
registered in the sight glass is
correct.
• Once the correct level is reached, fit
and tighten the oil filler plug.
